Welcome to the 2016 presidential bid party, Senator Rand Paul! It’s nice that Senator Ted Cruz finally has a friend to hang out with in the “officially announced” club.
Leading up to today’s rally (April 7th), Rand Paul was definitely not keeping quiet about how pumped he was for Rand Paul 2016. He tweeted “I Stand With Rand”, showing us his possible campaign themes. We don’t know about you, but how many more flame logos are we going to be able to handle in 2016 (right Ted Cruz)?
One campaign trend we are seeing already is if you aren’t branding yourself as “fresh” or having a “new perspective”, then you basically can’t be a candidate in 2016. Or it just means you have a political legacy, like Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush.
According to the New York Times, Ron “will have a silent role” at the April 7th rally. ‘Silent’ is not typically a word we would think to describe Ron Paul… However, the I Agree to See Team will keep you updated on the Ron-Rand father-son relationship and how it plays out heading towards the 2016 election.

“A Different Kind of Republican Leader”
Rand Paul’s campaign ad combines everything you could imagine in a presidential announcement video – epic music, propaganda-like words like “Rand Paul Taking a Stand”, liberal news commentators like John Stewart and Chris Matthews talking about how great he is and an undistinguishable cult-like chant at the end.One campaign trend we are seeing already is if you aren’t branding yourself as “fresh” or having a “new perspective”, then you basically can’t be a candidate in 2016.

Will Ron Paul’s Reputation Help His Son Rand Paul in 2016?
In case you didn’t know, Libertarian Ron Paul is Rand Paul’s dad. Although they have familial bonds, it doesn’t mean Ron Paul’s fan base will be quick to jump over to another candidate. Also, it doesn’t mean Rand Paul will want to align himself with Ron’s stances.According to the New York Times, Ron “will have a silent role” at the April 7th rally. ‘Silent’ is not typically a word we would think to describe Ron Paul… However, the I Agree to See Team will keep you updated on the Ron-Rand father-son relationship and how it plays out heading towards the 2016 election.
